The museum is absolutely great! We enjoyed all the halls there, especially the fossils one. It took approximately 3 hours to go through all the museum.

My partner and I have just moved to Australia from the UK and so many people had recommended the 3 park pass. Being Yorkshire folk, we felt at home in the pastoral setting with the farm animals! We spent our Sunday exploring the parks and all the wonderful animals. It brought us so much joy. The farm on Churchill Island is very well presented with so much information and activities available for its guests. We loved the highland cows! We ended the day with the penguin parade which was also very well run.

We loved our cruise along the Yarra! Very informative and so relaxing. A great way to see the city. The staff were lovely and the boat was comfy. We sat outside at the back and had a great time. We highly recommend and will do it again next time we're in Melbourne.

We loved our visit to the Star Wars exhibition for my sons birthday! There was so much attention to detail and plenty of activities to keep the kids engaged too.

First trip with the grandkids. They were excited about the gold. With trepidation we took the mine tour & thoroughly enjoyed it. They loved colouring their candles.
